CompTIA Network+ (N10-009) — Question 104

Which of the following network topologies contains a direct connection between every node in the network?

Answer options

• A. Mesh
• B. Star
• C. Hub-and-spoke
• D. Point-to-point

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, Mesh, because in a mesh topology, each node is directly connected to every other node, allowing for high redundancy and reliability. Options B (Star) and C (Hub-and-spoke) involve central nodes that connect to other nodes, which does not provide direct connections between all nodes. Option D (Point-to-point) refers to a direct link between two nodes only, not a network-wide connection.
